You just need two video cards or one dual head card to do it, but you probably wouldn'be be able to game on one and do things on the other at the same time.

Not played games with my quad head card but with the dual head the desktop would lost its alignment so you got half a task bar on the other monitor.

my uncle used to play a game on one screen and have msn running in the other, the only problem was that you can only see msn running, you can't do anything with it, if that makes sense. its as if the msn is running in the background on the msn screen
